Mark R. Wieber (a.k.a. Gunner) Cliff Notes Version 7

I think at one point Wieber was using PE in an ad for his business... Yellow Pages or something similar. This is a very sticky subject because engineering is a term used in countries like the UK for machining. The problem would be using the P.E. term. If you really care I'm sure Google has a record of Wieber use of the P.E. term. I don't care. This is not the problem really the problem with Mark Wieber and it's grasping at straws... which KiddingNoOne often does. We went through this in some detail some time ago, and if you want to google it, go right ahead. It is most certainly NOT a non-issue, any more so than it would be if I were to claim to be a physician (which I am not). In the state of California (as in New Jersey), "Engineer" is a licensed profession, and to call oneself an engineer, one has to be licensed by the state. Wieber is not licensed, and therefore has no standing to claim that he is. Further, in the state of New York, one cannot hold an executive position in an engineering company without first being a licensed engineer. I am not sure whether that holds true for California or not. Go ahead, google for the conversation right here in rcm. I do recall that I quoted chapter & verse from the California laws. As for the rest of whoyakidding's ghost's aptly named "Cliff" notes, well, they're just too damned entertaining to ignore. Of course now we have to wait with bated breath for GummyBear to claim that what he really meant by "Engineer" is that he was a train driver for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe. Arf arf, indeed. |

Not going to Google it because it's not worth my time and I don't care. You care that much, you Google it and post it. KiddingNoOne's trademark line "Arf, arf" is old and worn out. |

I am not sure whether that holds true for California or not. As much as anything else, gummer doesn't have a shred of the education one would need to be an engineer. At best, he has taken a few vocational classes in junior college. It might be possible to hold some kind of engineering license without first obtaining a four year degree, but gummer has no license and only rudimentary vocational classwork. He is not an engineer.
